Note from Debbie Yow

Dear Friends, Alums, and Supporters of Maryland Wrestling:

It is with mixed emotions that we notify you all of Coach Pat Santoro's resignation from the Terrapin family to become the head wrestling coach at Lehigh University. Obviously, we are saddened to see the current ACC Coach of the Year leave the University of Maryland in the midst of his rebuilding of our wrestling program back to national prominence. However, we are also excited to wish Pat, along with his wife Julie and daughter Leah, the best in his return home to his native Lehigh Valley. Please join us in wishing Pat success in his new position and extending our sincere appreciation for returning our wrestling program back into the national rankings and the top of the ACC…where we belong.

Wrestling matters very much to me personally and to the University of Maryland, and, like each of you, Maryland Athletics had a vision of a bright future for Terrapin Wrestling when we hired Pat away from Lehigh five years ago. We are grateful that Pat, his staff, and student-athletes, along with the loyal support of each of you, have strengthened the foundation for our wrestling future, and we now look forward to continuing to build a preeminently competitive program with our next head coach.

Details of Pat's departure will be finalized in the coming days, and the search for a strong successor to continue the resurgence of our wrestling program is already underway. We will inform everyone as soon as it is time to welcome a new head wrestling coach to the Terps.

In the interim, I extend my sincere gratitude to all of our Wrestling stakeholders and to Pat.

Go Terps,
Debbie Yow
